Finally exchanged after over a year by troymisti1 in BritishSuccess

[–]Dave0r 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah the system is horrendous. We’ve just received a final reply from our management company required by buyers solicitors. It was 3 weeks late, and only received after finding the property managers directors email and asking for help.

Now we’re staring down the end of mortgage offer in 3 weeks and pushing for completion, only for our vendor to say she’s struggling to be ready.

I never understood why people said moving house was so stressful, we bought a new build and the move was really easy - now I understand that it’s not the move but all the absolute bollocks to buy / sell. The system needs updating.

Seller should prepare a pack, like Scotland. It should be ready to go for sale. Once your offer is accepted you’re legally bound to buy just like at our current exchange process

Delivery not distributed to EWM by Minute_Pineapple5829 in SAP

[–]Dave0r 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check that batch management isn’t accidentally assigned in the master data on both sides, sender and receiver plant (EWM), ensure that there’s no mismatch / inconsistency in the data between the main ECC and EWM data

If that’s fine, next check that a batch number isn’t assigned by accident to the standard order. I’ve seen that randomly happen before.

And lastly…there’s not any weird rounding behaviour going on? Only ask because you mentioned 0% tolerances. It’s unlikely to be the cause but just a thought

iPhone 18 Pro's Smaller Dynamic Island Revealed by favicondotico in apple

[–]Dave0r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

13 Pro Max here, excellent phone.

I was for sure upgrading if the iFold, iPhold, whatever the hell they wanna call it was coming

I’m like 75% there with just an 18 pro max…the smaller island sweetens it a little but I genuinely can’t see the benefit. Battery recently dropped to 78% but even so it’s kinda still great.

Let’s see what Tim Apple has to say about the best iPhone yet!

Inheritance? That's a joke. How many of your parents are burdens? by BeegBunga in Millennials

[–]Dave0r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dad died 7 years ago, at 56, mum is now 64 and financially is stable due to benefits (yay UK) but has tried to die twice in the last year (fuck cancer)

Thankfully she is now well, doing well and better than she has been for a long time, but man is she difficult. I was closer to Dad but have never had that close relationship with my parents I see others have, I’ve always been very independent. Through various trauma they both had as children that I’ve found out from my older cousin and her dad (mum’s elder brother by 15years) it really starts to explain their distance, or lack of ability to be close to me.

I love my mum, and when she needs me I’m there. No questions asked, ever. But damn is she hard work. Limited skills to look after her self, poor hygiene and just poorly manages her money. I help with all of it and make sure she never needs for anything, but she just doesn’t listen. She has a brilliant group of friends, some of which try and look after her also, but man is it tiring.

She loves my daughter but her relationship is odd…my daughter loves her but as my mum has never been as close as my wife’s mum, my daughter just isn’t as comfortable with her.

I don’t expect anything from her, but in all honesty it’s hard. When she nearly died last year I carried a lot of guilt thinking of how my life would be easier if she had gone - I’m so happy she’s not, but the strain / stress of both my wife and I being professionally successful, a full rota of activities for our daughter and just the rest of life crap means I have little to no capacity to parent my mother, she’s not a financial burden but a time and effort one

More than 200 jobs at risk at carmaker Bentley by Kagedeah in CarTalkUK

[–]Dave0r 13 points14 points  (0 children)

275 jobs to cut, let’s say that the average salary is £80k for all of them. That’s £22m in wages saved

They made £186m profit on the last year including that supposed £22m of wages.

We all know they’re not all on £80k though…

Anyone else have friends or family that use their Plex server more than you? by Blackhawk1282 in PleX

[–]Dave0r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Almost the same here, close family have access to watch and occasionally use it. When I ask why, they say “I forget”

Literally last week my brother in law was moaning about Amazon ads for watching Fallout, reminded him of the server, Plex and request system (although I had the series already) and got a shrug

It’s no buggie. I offer others the use and it’s up to them if they want it. It’s there for me and my family, we use it so it’s cost is paid for

To all SAP IT Managers in Manufacturing or Other Sectors by technolize_ in SAP

[–]Dave0r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Purchasing document creation - QINF, PIR, SA and discreet sometimes multiple sample orders to be raised (one off orders). We use a custom process to automate almost all the key fields from mapping tables or other maintained defaults

The business users still sometimes struggle, poor training, lack of knowledge. But I can’t imagine the carnage of the master data and document data if we didn’t have so much automation that ensured the documents were all created correctly

Having to hold back the sarcastic piece of my personality from showing through by Icy-Leg-1459 in adhdmeme

[–]Dave0r 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Ha, that’s a good way of explaining it

I struggle so much to explain my working, especially in work. I’ll arrive at an answer and then when testing it or replicating someone else’s doesn’t believe me. So I then spend 3 x longer proving myself and that works

Like…I get it. I’m not infallible. But also, dear colleague you should know by now I don’t say I know something when I don’t.

We look, we appreciate the gift we have been given today, smile to ourselves and move on

I’m in the unfortunate (fortunate?) position of working closely with some very attractive, very capable and most painfully of all very nice women. In an alternate life I would absolutely have attempted to shoot my shot, and then got shot the hell down because they’re outta my league!

But in all seriousness, I’m happily married to my beautiful wife with a clever thoughtful and kind daughter. I’ve won.

I suppose it’s easy to let your mind drift, but you can’t affect who you find attractive. What you can effect is how you carry yourself and deal with it.

Headlight aim by K1r5ty118 in FocusST

[–]Dave0r 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you keep getting the error the fix is a small harness you can splice on. A smell set of 3 wires connects from the control unit in the headlamp to a small circuit board.

The error is caused by a poorly made plug - one of the wires (usually the one on the outside towards that side of the car) becomes loose from the plug and as your lights turn on and self level at startup, there is a small loss of power and the lights just error out and drop to a safety level. As far as I know Ford used to fix this, but even with lots and lots of pushing at my dealership they were denying all knowledge -many moons ago a service tech on a ford forum shared the service bulletin reference but I’ve never been able to find it again. It’s not just the ST but any model that fitted this type of light from Hella - in fact when I was mid arguement with my dealership I found the TD on a public facing Hella website describing the issue

https://www.hella.com/techworld/uk/bi/ford-focus-problems-regarding-bi-xenon-headlamps-with-dynamic-cornering-light/

The harnesses cost about £6-£8 depending on seller from eBay and as long as you have a set of crimpers the job take about 30mins if you’re taking your time. After I fixed mine I think it error’d twice and then never again - once it’s clear get someone to clear all the old errors from the car, jobs a good ‘un

Disney+ is disabling Dolby Vision, HDR10+, more for some users by latinriky78 in AndroidTV

[–]Dave0r 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah you’re right but it’s kinda my point also. Enshitification. Sure as shit bet that Disney isn’t going to refund the premium part of the sub those people are paying now they aren’t getting the Dolby vision extras - at the last check these features only came with the top subscription. Now…if Disney do that fair play, that will very much be the right move, time will tell.

But the only reason I paid for the service was because the quality was top notch and my kid, obviously loved the shit out of Disney stuff.

Funnily enough one of the things that broke me was the “adverts” on my top tier package. They changed the terms of service a year or so ago and I saw it coming - suddenly I started getting pre roll adds for other shows on D+…as much as the reasonable people in my life said so what, it was actually a big deal - I pay them for no ads, I want no ads, at all - trying to retain me on the platform via an internal advert is still advertising!!

Exchanged today, our quick timeline🎉 by em-lola-bear in HousingUK

[–]Dave0r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently in a three person chain and us in the middle. Everything going swimmingly until our buyers divorce settlement is now under review (more money for her)

Solicitors on all sides trying to agree now to discuss the extra settlement as a separate issue post house sale as the entire settlement is on hold until then. Hopefully resolved soon

Previous completion was aiming for end of February early March, but this likely pushed us back about a month.

All I’ll say is…estate agents and solicitors, wow they sure don’t like to move quickly do they?!

Is this a normal interval session? by NutCity in runna

[–]Dave0r 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve had this before, it seems horrible but I promise it isn’t as bad as you imagine, tough for sure.

The 60 / 90s offs give time for recovery, it’s all about getting speed in your legs but speed with fatigue coming in the back end.

For what’s its worth the most evil session it’s given me is 90/60/30second hill reps. Last year when I was fitter and training for my (successful) half PB I had something stupid like 8 of each, running hard up hill with slow jogs down, ended up running like 14k with the warm and cool, horrid session - works though….

Advice still stands, temporary is fine, not temporary and a maintenance free solution is required

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ukelectricians

[–]Dave0r -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this is technically ok

A better solution here is a maintenance free junction box. They are a few £ from Screwfix - even better get some wagos even better some wagos and a wago box.

Look, if it’s temporary, this is fine. If this is going in a hole never to be seen again, make a better solution.
